Only matches at the unofficial 1971 Women's World Cup, which twice drew six-figure crowds of 100,000 for the Opening Match and 110,000 for the final, have ever attracted attendances for a women's sporting event in excess of tonight's at Camp Nou. That tournament was organized outside of the world governing body's (FIFA) jurisdiction by the Federation of Independent European Female Football (FIEFF).

What is indisputable is that no women's club match has ever come close to this figure. Barcelona had played in front of the previous club record attendance of 60,739 away to Atlético de Madrid in a Spanish League match at the Wanda Metropolitano in March 2019.

It is also a record for any women's soccer match played in Europe beating the 80,203 figure which saw the 2012 Olympic Football Final between the United States and Japan at Wembley Stadium and a record for a women's European club competition match also set in 2012 when 50,212 saw that year's UEFA Women's Champions League final between Olympique Lyonnais and 1. FFC Frankfurt.

Remarkably the crowd was also the biggest at any soccer match played in Europe so far this season, with the men's equivalent El Clásico match between FC Barcelona and Real Madrid, so often the high watermark in European club football, only drawing an attendance of 86,422 to Camp Nou in October.

The figure of 91,553 is vindication for the club who have gone on a relentless drive to push for the world record crowd this week. With every club member entitled to withdraw up to four tickets, only paying a small transaction fee, there were fears many people would not show up considering the two-goal advantage Barcelona had going into the game, the inclement weather in the city and the early kick-off time of 6.45 pm considering many people in Spain work until 7 pm.

Speaking on the radio on Monday, Club President Joan Laporta urged all fans who had obtained a ticket to attend. Full-page ads were run in the popular Catalan daily newspapers with the slogan "let's break the world record". A gigantic banner of their star player, Ballon D'Or winner Alexia Putellas, was put up on the side of Camp Nou looking over one of the city's main thoroughfares and a mural of Putellas dressed as Superwoman was unveiled in one of Barcelona's squares.

Attendance record as 91,553 fans watched them come from behind to beat bitter rivals Real Madrid 5-2 at Camp Nou on Wednesday and reach the Champions League semi-finals with an 8-3 aggregate win.

Leading 3-1 from the first leg and roared on by a partisan Nou Camp, the reigning champions won 5-2 on the night and 8-3 on aggregate to set up a last-four meeting with either Arsenal or Wolfsburg.

The previous highest turnout for a women's club game came in 2019 when 60,739 people saw Barca beat Atletico Madrid 2-0 at Wanda Metropolitano. The previous Champions League record was 50,212 for a game between Lyon and Frankfurt in Munich in 2012.

Barcelona's player celebrate at the final whistle wednesday evening's crowd at Europe's largest stadium also dwarfed the record for spectators at a women's international, set when 80,203 fans witnessed the United States secure Olympic gold by beating Japan 2-1 at Wembley during London 2012.

"I dont have the words to describe it", Ballon dOr winner Alexia Putellas said. "It was super magical. The game ended and the fans didnt want to leave. It was incredible."

It was the first time Barcelona's women's team played a match at the Camp Nou in front of fans. They had played at the stadium before but behind closed doors because of restrictions due to the coronavirus pandemic.

The team usually play its matches at the much smaller Johan Cruyff Stadium, which holds about 6,000 fans. The Camp Nou - which featured a stadium-wide mosaic featuring the words 'More than Empowerment' on seats - has a 99,000-capacity.
